Also, if he were able to meet the requirements, he would <br />have to post $343 for the first $1,000 bond. Mr. Zepper stated <br />he had called 35 communities at random from the telephone <br />book and that only five require licenses, 12 require permits, <br />and only St. Paul requires a bond. Mr. Zepper asked that the <br />City Council check into the bonding issue. <br />Acting Mayor Hodges stated that the City Council should check <br />into the issue. <br />Admin. Achen stated that Mr. Zepper would not be able to work <br />until he either was bonded or until the City took action on <br />the issue, and that he could have information available for <br />the Council at the next meeting if they wanted to wait that <br />long. <br />Councilmember Ziebarth stated that he could not make a <br />decision on the issue during this evenings meeting but that <br />it should be discussed. It was decided that the bonding issue <br />would be discussed at the next City Council meeting. <br />Carol Ziebarth, 5150 Bona Road, expressed concern to the City <br />Council of a possible water shortage for the coming summer <br />and asked that the Council consider enforcing water restrictions <br />for the City of Mounds View, i.e. alternate days for watering <br />lawns, to get ahead of any situation that might arise. <br />
